Norwalk, CT, February 1, 2007: New York Comic Con (NYCC) officials want fans to know that tickets for Saturday, February 24 are sold out on the NYCC website. However, tickets for Saturday are still available through the many comic retailers who are also selling tickets for the show. A full list of these comic retailers is below.

A limited number of weekend passes are still available for purchase, as are both Friday (February 23) and Sunday (February 25) day tickets. These tickets are available through both the NYCC website as well as at comic book retailers.

"In order to avoid any overcrowding at the convention, we have set limits on the number of tickets available for each day of the show," notes Greg Topalian, NYCC Event Director. "Saturday is the first day to sell out, but we want to stress that there are definitely tickets still available. We want to encourage the many fans who may want to attend NYCC to act fast."
